Hi Flavia:
I have been in your curvalicious program since June 6, 2014. I started with almost 27% body fat, at 120 pounds for a 5,2” height. In this month, I lost 3 pounds, went down to 117, my body fat went down to 24%, I lost 2” of my waist, and I feel so much healthier .
My only question is regarding my numbers for my muscle grow. I am still a little confused how to check my improvement. In measurements, I did not gain any inches, for example, my biceps were 10” a month ago, and are still 10” today. I have been doing your programs, as you show the exercises with weights ranging from 10-15 pounds.
Should I have grow a little or it is too soon?
Should I do heavier weights and less reps?, I usually do 10/12/15 reps, depending on the weight.
I know the program is 3 months, but I just want to have an idea how to measure my progress in muscle mass. Please explain!!!
Thank you, and you are such an inspiration.

Hi Romina,
Awesome job on your progress so far! You probably did make some gains because even though your arms didn’t grow in measurements, you likely did change the muscle to fat ratio on them. I would recommend sticking to the program as is and you should continue to see results. 🙂 The best way to measure your progress is by looking in the mirror and by how you are feeling in the gym endurance and strength wise.
All the best!
